Writing materials were furnished 10 Parsons

pairing statements. Engel made no request for
pen or paper, but sat stoiidly on his bed looking
al the opposite wall OF his cell.
The clergyman passed around into the north
corridor and from the gallery overlooking the
scanold, took % view OF that grim structure.
Then he returned and paced ncryously back

Keep them moving and perfect order prevails.
A little ripple OF excitement occurred al $3.50
when Mrs Parsons and Mrs Holmes went up
TO the police lines and demanded admission,
They were refused ana requested TO move on.
They declined 10 do this, and becoming rnther
violent In their talk were arrested without fur

There was no expression or demonstration oil

LoSDoN, Nov. 1.-THE dispatches from
San Reno concerning the condition OF
Crown Prince Frederick William are ex-
tremely confusing, but all agree that
the physicians attending the Royal
patient hesitate to perform an op-
Grafton upon the diseased parts of his
throat, obviously because of the likeii-
hood of fatal results. The cold, inexorable
facts before them, however, is that some
thing must be done and without delay.
The Crown Prince has been absolutely un-
able to articulate for four days, and every
thing that he has reported to have said
within that time has been signified only
by Affirmative or negative movements Of
the hands or head

The rnttling OF chairs tables and benches CON
tiuucd for several minutes hut by II :o5 there
began to fall hush and conversation among
the crowd sunk almost TO a whisper. The bnre
whitewashcd walls made n painful contrast
with the dark brown gallows with its four
noosed ropes dropping ominously near the
floor
A rleam of sunlight shooting through the
window Mt this instant fell on n corner OF the
death machine, and in slight degree relieved
its soTnhor hue.
Through the window one saw number OF po-
liccmen armed with rifles looking down from
the root Of the Dearborn street wing on the
proceedings
The Chief Builin began at 1i;i0 calling out
the names Of the persons summoned as Jurors
nnd bringing thcm forward to the row OF little
stools directly in front of the gnlows. No other
sounds were heard in the long, high corridor but
The solemn. monotonous voice OF the bailitf and
therustlng OF the jurors as they tiptoed forward
through the crowd.
The eyes of the crowd began to cepte; on the
dark box upon the scafiold OF the oangling
ropes This box seemed 10 possess fearful fas-
cinntion and was absorbing the attention or
every person In the corridor when frishtful
wail startled the crowd. Some who ha- heard
the horrible grooming of Lingg ycs,erday' Just
before his death, declared II sounded as II he was
still in agony But this was mere fancy The
blacl, jail cat was the cause of the commoiion,
and at intervals continued TO emit her ghost

| The death warrant was read first TO spies,
then Fischer then Engel and last TO PARSONS.
At i:i6 the sheriff finished reading the death

in their shrouds at the grated door and said
sdieus to friends in the visitors cage. At 1l:io

mand TO the crowd fronting the gallows that all
must stop smoking was given at II ;So.
was now 1i:I5 and the suspense OF the
crowd near the gallows was like slow torture.
There was no relief, uiid the newspaper men
gazed at the gallows and noted the four ropes
swaying slightly TO and fro.

Hundreds OF friends OF the dead men filed
into and out OF the little shop and took last
look At the faces most strange from passage OF
time At one end OF the store Mrs. Engel sat
with eyes red with weeping, and her face
shrouded in black veil.
Edn Mueller sat beside the cnsket which held
all that remained on earth OF her lover. Her
face was pale as death, and she sobbed convul-
sively as the sympathizing friends filed in and
out. -
Further Up the avenue, at 800, is another un.
dertakcr's shop whore the bodies OF Spies,
Parsons and Fischer were being cared for Mrs.
Parsons was the most nou cable person here.
She sat with her back TO the window, through
which hundred eager. curious eyes peered.

This was Mrs. Van Zandt, and she was rs deep

small. bowed figure sat alone in Il corner on
low stool.
1t was Mrs Spies. the arch-Anarchists
mother. Her head was buried in her hands
and they were almost In her lap She rocked
TO and fro in an agony OF grief, strangelya Mt
variance with the actions OF Mrs. Persons, who
sat upright and looked toward where the body
OF her husband lay. Her eyes were fixed in o
stony stare They were large and lustrous, but
seemed TO have lost the. power OF weeping,
There she sat one hand clasped In that OF the
woman next her, her lips moving US tnouBn
muttering some resolve, tho thin-pcaked dark
features peering from behind the mass of crepe,
and looking as though there was something in
future TO anticipate. Hers was striking
figure.
There we're little crowds along the avenue,
but they were composed OF idle curiosity seek
crs. not sympathizerS with the Anarchists
cause There was lttle excitement and while
groups OF men stood on the street corners anu
discussed the execution, there was not police
man in sight or any apparent need OF one. The
only sign OF open interest was shown ut the Au-
rorn Turner Hall on Huron street, near Mil
wauiiee avenue Here flag was at half'mast,
and The saloon below groups OF men gathered
and expressed their dsapproval of'the hanging.
There were some scowling fnces here, and the
stranger was not cordially greeted Clenched
fists ind ugly gances told OF the unpopuarity
OF the English press in the Turn Halle.
The body OF Spies was cmbalmed first and
turned over to his mother, who took 1t TO her
home late in the evening. The embalmcrs are
still at work on the bodies OF Parsons and
Fischer, and may not complete their work un-
til early tomorrow morning The embalmng
is being done by Prof. w. A. Sullivan, n profes-
sional ombalmer OF Boston.
"Judgng from the appearance of the bodies"
said Prof. Sullivan "the hanging OF these men
